Yarrow Essential Oil

Yarrow Essential Oil is a botanical blessing steam-distilled from the flowering tops of wild yarrow. This ancient plant yields a cooling compound called chamazulene, which is a dream for calming areas and emotions that have become inflamed. This tried and true blue oil is so potent, legend has it that Achilles doused himself in Yarrow oil in order to protect himself from his enemies’ arrows. The only part of his body not protected by Yarrow was… his Achilles’ heel! Hence the genus Latin name Achillea referring to Achilles, and millefolium which means “a thousand leaves”.
